Development build #200503301800 of NetBeans 4.1 Windows XP, JDK 1.5.0_02 build #09 Description: ============ I was creating new tag library descriptor from template and obtained below attached NPE after I clicked "Finish" button. The web project had dependency on another Java Library project. I can't reproduce it though. What I did: =========== 1. Invoke "New|File/Folder..." on "Web Pages" node in Projects view. 2. Selected "Web" category and "Tag Library Descriptor" and pushed "Next >". 3. Set "test" as TLD Name and pushed "< Back" and immediatelly "Next >" buttons. 4. Pushed "< Back" and "Next >" again and finally "Finish" buttons. 5. NPE was thrown but the file was generated and displayed in editor correctly.
Created attachment 21274 [details] NPE thrown when generating TLD file.
This is unfortunately random issue.
BTW: seems to be similar to issue 54342 and issue 48789.
Yes, you are right. It's a duplicate however the cause of the NPE obviously remains not fixed. :-(
fixable in 4.1 (time permitting)
